candidates for the Ward 1 seat

on the Rochester City Council — Andy Hemenway, Daniel Sepeda and

Patrick Keane — were asked to provide responses to a question designed to help introduce them to voters

The two-part question posed was: What do you see as the ideal qualities for a council member, and what prompted you to run for office?

The Post Bulletin requested a video response of up to 90 seconds in length from each candidate. Here are the responses we received:

Daniel Sepeda did not provide a video response by the deadline. If a video is submitted, it will be added at a later date.
